Hmm the page mentions it when upgradimg from 4.x:

"3 New Features:
[...]
GCC: The compiler toolchain is now based on GCC 3.4.X, rather than GCC
2.95.X.
[...]
4 Notable Changes
[...]
Due to the upgraded GCC compiler, C++ programs generally need to be
recompiled and reinstalled. This requirement comes from changes in the C++
ABI."

So - again - is the change from 3.3.3 to 3.4.x so great, that all of the
ports that were writren in c++ need to be rebuild?
